Bad Sisters the Apple TV+ Irish black comedy is golden! Renewed the series for a second season on 8 November 2022, the Garvey sisters ten part season one ended mid-October last year.
So after rejoining Apple TV+ it was time to catch up with a top title!
Set in Dublin and filmed on location in Ireland, based on the Flemish series Clan, Bad Sisters is centred around the five Garvey sisters—Eva, Grace, Ursula, Bibi, and Becka.
After Grace's abusive, controlling husband John Paul dies unexpectedly, the sisters find themselves at the centre of a life insurance investigation.
Flipping between timelines—one before John Paul's death, in which Grace's sisters plot to murder their brother-in-law, and another after his death, in which a determined insurance agent tries to prove the sisters' malicious involvement to save his struggling business.
Spoilers ahead! Well it did end over six months ago, I avoided spoilers, so can you. You have been warned.
John Paul and Grace have a night in at the rebuilt cabin. While there, Roger arrives and confronts John Paul, saying that he knows it was him who framed him for paedophilia. Roger says he forgives John Paul and walks away; Grace sees him through the window.
Grace and John Paul have dinner and she attempts to have sex with him; when he refuses, he blames his erectile dysfunction on when Eva seduced him. He reveals that he raped Eva but attempted to blame her.
Grace grabs his pyjamas and strangles him. She goes downstairs and begins knitting; she watches the film Isadora, where Isadora Duncan is killed by her scarf becoming entangled in the axle of her car. She and Roger dress John Paul, put him on an all-terrain-vehicle, and wrap a scarf around his neck and the axle, making it look like that was his cause of death.
She admits this to her sisters. Matt, investigating the death, finds the movie and the yarn, and realizes how John Paul's death was staged. Becka attempts to commit suicide over guilt in Minna's death, but her sisters stop her. They discuss how Grace killed John Paul, only for Matt to overhear their conversation. He burns the evidence, and they agree to not make a claim on their life insurance policy. Grace and Blánaid move in with Eva.
Daryl McCormack as Matthew ("Matt") Claffin is that handsome man from my film of 2022, Good Luck to you Leo Grand.
It's worth watching it just for McCormack basically.
But for real this is a damn fine series. I liked it a lot. I really can't wait for season two to land on Apple TV+. The Irish scenery is also a plus too!
